SSH multiplexing adding garbage after ssh version update.

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • After upgrading ssh, control path option adding garbage in unix socket path

    $ ssh -CNf -o BatchMode=yes -o ControlMaster=auto -o "ControlPath=$TMP/master-$HOST-$$-%r@%h:%p" -o ConnectTimeout=10 -o ControlPersist=30 -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no <user_name>@<fqdn>
    

    It seems like some garbage, or unique identifier, is added at the end of the path for Unix socket. It is like '.X5deuMzLjkW4do2d' at the end of the path.
